Shepard Smith Steps Down From Fox News

Shepard Smith is stepping down from Fox News, effective with Friday afternoon’s edition of Shepard Smith Reporting.

The anchor has been a frequent target of President Donald Trump’s attacks after he has been critical of the administration. The cleaning house of Smith also comes just hours after Attorney General Bill Barr met with FNC owner Rupert Murdoch at the media mogul’s NYC residence.Citing talking “truth to power,” Smith addressed the move just now at the end of his show on Friday.

In a statement, he said, “Recently I asked the company to allow me to leave Fox News and begin a new chapter. After requesting that I stay, they graciously obliged.” He added, “The opportunities afforded this guy from small town Mississippi have been many. It’s been an honor and a privilege to report the news each day to our loyal audience in context and with perspective, without fear or favor. I’ve worked with the most talented, dedicated and focused professionals I know and I’m proud to have anchored their work each day — I will deeply miss them.”Sign up for Deadline's Newsletter.
